Assurance

Turn assurance activity into managed findings, actions, risks and leadership reporting.

Audits run against structured templates and produce findings that someone owns. Red and Amber answers require an evidence note — enforced in the database, so the rule holds however the record is written.

Who works here

Assurance manager

Runs the audit programme and needs findings to become owned, dated actions rather than report appendices.

Every Amber and Red answer carries its evidence and its action.

Auditee / package manager

Receives findings and needs to respond with evidence without learning a new system.

External response portals take responses and evidence directly.

Project director

Reports assurance position to leadership and needs the pack to match the record.

Insight reports publish from live data as immutable snapshots.

Audits and templates

Structured templates keep audits consistent across projects, with scoring and evidence captured as the audit runs.

  • Structured audit templates
  • RAG scoring with mandatory evidence notes on Red and Amber answers
  • Photo and document evidence on answers

Findings to close-out

Findings carry a root-cause classification and a regulatory reference, become actions with owners and due dates, and can be linked to the risk they represent. External parties respond through a token-and-PIN portal without needing a seat.

  • Root-cause categories and regulatory references, seeded per organisation
  • Findings with owned, dated actions
  • External response portals with evidence upload
  • Lessons captured from audit outcomes
  • Risks drafted from a finding, human-reviewed before saving

Leadership reporting

Board reports assemble their sections from the live assurance record rather than being typed, and generate asynchronously so a long report does not block on the request.

  • Sections bound to assurance data, not retyped
  • AI-assisted narrative and theme clustering, reviewed before issue
  • Immutable publication snapshot — an issued report cannot change afterwards

From audit answer to board pack

  1. 01

    Audit

    An auditor scores an answer Amber and is required to attach the evidence note before the record saves.

  2. 02

    Finding

    The answer raises a finding with a named owner and a due date.

  3. 03

    Action

    The owner responds — directly or through the external portal — and close-out is verified, not assumed.

  4. 04

    Report

    The finding, its action trail and the linked risk appear in the insight report, published as a locked snapshot.
